    Do not use your work computer for anything but work. Do not use your work online accounts for anything personal. Treat them like the spying device they are. 9/10 the company doesn’t have the resources to actually spy on you, but it can all be changed with a single software update

      I was at a professional development conference offered by my union yesterday. 3/4 of the presenters I went to were using their management-owned accounts (and in one case, a management-owned device!). Now, none of the topics were about unionism–it was all how to be better at our jobs, but I couldn’t wrap my head around it… and they put up QR codes for us to access on our phones, and guess what? The links wouldn’t work for me because I refuse to put any work shit on my personal phone, so I wasn’t logged into my work account, and therefore didn’t have permission to view the document. I just could not believe that people were surprised…

      Oh they do. All your activity is being logged. They just don’t have the reason to view those logs until you give them one.
